Trivia
The movie that Jillian and Spencer watch together is Penny Serenade (1941), which also centers on a dramatic child rearing.

Goofs
All NASA shuttle astronauts live and work in the vicinity of the Johnson Space Center in Houston, many of them in Clear Lake, a Houston suburb. Yet in the film, Jillian teaches school in Florida, where she and Armacost clearly live. Astronauts only go to Florida for launches.

Quotes
Nan: Men are like parking spaces: all the good ones are taken, and the available ones are handicapped.

Alternate versions
The Indian Censor Board made cuts for an 'A' (adults) certificate by deleting the word "motherfucker", muting the word "fucking" from the line "Jesus fucking Christ" and reducing 50% of the love-making scene especially reducing to a flash the thrusting movements on the bed (when shown continuously) (Length Retained: 37.00 ft).

I just watched this movie which is 14 years old and I've never heard of it maybe because of the 5.1 score on IMDb. I have never EVER been more in disagreement with this site. This is not a 5/10 rated movie should be much closer to 7/10 don't know what people are thinking to be honest. The actors in it should alone be worth a 7. and i must say they did not disappoint at all so i don't know why people vote it 5. that was all i had to say but have to write 10 lines. Well Worth a watch if u haven't allrdy. im just filling out space now. gogo watch it. very hard to write 10 lines about something i could write in 1 line critics are WRONG! this is at least 7/10 in my opinion i have watched movies with 8+ that was worse then this so.
